How to Play
Score more points than your opponent to win each match. Use arrow keys or WASD to move your player, spacebar to jump, and designated keys to shoot and pass. In multiplayer, share the keyboard with your friend for co-op chaos, or face off solo against AI opponents. Master the timing of your shots and defensive positioning to dominate the court.
